Recalls are costly and time-consuming for manufacturers and distributors alike, whether you start the recall or have to respond to one. That is why some firms delay initiating a recall or fail to respond. FDA has published guidance clarifying its expectations for recalls, press releases and other public notifications that affect public health and safety.
This 75-minute FDA recall training walks through that guidance. You'll review recall terminology, when a recall is necessary, and what firms in the distribution chain should do in advance to initiate a recall. The session covers steps to spot product problems early, timely recall communications, preparing to respond quickly to a recall notice and working with FDA on recalled products.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
When a recall is needed, manufacturers and distributors must know their responsibilities for initiation and notification and have processes ready for when a recall notice arrives. This session helps you identify the internal processes your facility should set up.
It suits supervisors, managers, directors, QA/QC staff, regulatory affairs professionals, manufacturers, distributors and contract manufacturing organizations.
